MattyFridays:I can't wait til Capaldi starts and all the fangirls get airlocked.

Are you kidding? A smart, handsome older guy with a Scottish accent? You think that would repel fangirls?

You are too late, you bitter little ball of nerd rage. The fangirling over Capaldi has already started. They are working their way through his entire back catalogue of works. They are producing Malcolm Tucker/Doctor mashups. There are gifs. There is art. There are videos. There are manips. There's fanfiction.

So take your "fake geek girl" "stop liking things the wrong way" bullshiat and go back to masturbating to the companions' tits like the sad bastard you are.

HopScotchNSoda:I hate to be a cynic, but the timing seems suspicious. How long might the Beeb have been holding onto these, only to release them this autumn with all of the hoopla and fan interest surrounding the fiftieth anniversary?

Here I was thinking that the person who had these also had all the rest, but required the BBC's assistance in getting them out of the country. All the BBC would have had to do is give over some bank account information and the episodes would be deposited immediately.

whizbangthedirtfarmer:I don't know. The BBC has the research: a wide majority of nuWho fans don't give two shiats about the "Classic" series. They may get a boost, but it's going to be the diehards like you and I who will work at getting these.

My boyfriend has literally not stopped "squeeing" over this release in the last 24 hours. I finally left the house.
